A US judge has temporarily blocked two music-sharing websites from selling songs by the Beatles and other artists for 25 cents each.

Los Angeles District Judge John Walter blocked the sites BlueBeat.com and Basebeat.com and owner Hank Risan from selling copyrighted songs by the Beatles and others.

Music company EMI Group filed a federal lawsuit on Tuesday seeking an injunction against the sites, claiming they were engaging in music piracy.
